CoinEx: It is initially determined that the attack was caused by the leakage of hot wallet private keys, and user assets were not affected.

Odaily Planet Daily News CoinEx released an update on the hacker attack incident, saying that it has been initially determined that this security incident was caused by the leakage of the hot wallet private key, and the investigation and processing work is proceeding in an orderly manner. This attack mainly involves crypto assets such as BTC, ETH, XRP, BCH, SOL, etc. The specific value is still being calculated. The assets in the CoinEx cold wallet were not affected by this incident. Currently, CoinEx has taken the following measures: 1. Suspend all crypto-asset deposit and withdrawal services and urgently shut down the hot wallet server. 2. Transfer remaining assets from the compromised hot wallet to a safe address. 3. Rebuild and redeploy the wallet system. 4. The CoinEx wallet team and security team investigated the attack based on the information and clues collected. 5. Contact the exchange to freeze the assets of the malicious attacker. CoinEx promises that user assets have not and will not be affected by this attack, and the resulting economic losses will be borne by the CoinEx User Asset Security Foundation. Currently, CoinEx is actively rebuilding the wallet system, including 211 chains and 737 cryptocurrencies. This process will take some time, and the team will gradually resume deposit and withdrawal services after ensuring the safety of assets. Currently, users are strongly advised not to deposit assets into the old address until recovery is complete to avoid potential losses.
